How Hair-Pins Are Made.

The machinery used in the manufac-
ture of hair-pius is of n delicate and
intricate character, as the prices ut
which pins are sold ncceSState the
cheapest and most rapid process, which
can only be procured by automatic
machines. The wire is made express
" for the purpose and put up in large
coils, which are placed in clamp,
which carries it to the machine while
strengthening it; from there it runs in
to another machine, which cuts, bends,
and by delicate, instantaneous pro-
cess sharpens the points. Running at
full speed these machines will turn out
l20 hair-pins every minute. To econ
omize. it is necessary to keep them
working night and day, The difficult
part is the enameling, which is done by
dipping in a preparation and baking
in an oven. Here is where the most
careful attention is required. as the pin
must be perfectly smooth and the en-
amel have perfect, polish. The
slightest particle of dust causes .imper-
fcctions and roughness, which is OBJ
